CLEVER MATHS COOKIES!

Check out these photos of us learning Maths.  Julia and Katie have been learning to join sets together and recognise dice patterns.   They are playing a game where they roll two dice and add them together.   They the colour in the star with the answer on it.  

The Squares Maths group has been learning to subtract.   We use teens frames to help visualize what number will be left after we do our subtraction.   We are finding this a really useful way to learn subtraction.  Mrs Lunn thinks the photo of Macy,  Saul and Alexis super cute!!!

MORNING EVERYONE!

We love spending time playing with our friends in the classroom before school.   Mrs Lunn set up the Egg Flip game today.   Some of us were working at The Office today and Matty was busy doing the Class Challenge.   Lucas was lucky,  his Mum read him a story!   We love coming to school!

WE LOVE MATHS!

Mrs Lunn has made us some new Maths games.  We had a great time playing them today!  In Maths we are learning about addition and subtraction. Please feel free to ask us some equations.  It's good for us to practice at home too!

AUTHOR CHECKER

Today Allie was our Author Checker.   All the children with Press Passes had to met Allie at the Author Circle.   There Allie helped them assess their writing against our Good Writing Rubric.   The children had to use the rubric to decide if their story was a 1, 2 or 3 star story.  Thanks Allie ... you are a super helper!

GETTING CREATIVE!

Today we had so much fun during Piako Time and everyone enjoyed being creative!  Lots of us painted pictures using a golf ball, did mosaic puzzles, built roads out of iceblock sticks, built towns out of blocks and dressed up as new characters.  Here are some photos of us at the activities!

MATHS FUN!

We have two new activities at Maths time.  First we have Dominoes!  Mrs Lunn says playing this game is helping us to recognise dice patterns which we use when we count numbers in our head.

The Squares Maths group loved their new game called Paint a Number.   Mrs Lunn has written some numbers on paint strips (like a number line) and we have to fill in the missing numbers.  This game is all about counting on,  knowing what comes before and after numbers and about writing numbers correctly too!

KONICHIWA!

Hello from Japan!  We have been busy traveling around the world on our 'exploring holiday' in an effort to help Mrs Peck decide on where to go on her sabbatical next term.   If she decided to go to Japan,  she could take part in the Blossom Festival.   She might need to get a fan like Macy and Tatum,  to cool herself down when she gets hot!

CUPCAKE COUNTING!

Look at these two lovely kiddies proudly showing us their Maths work today!  Mrs Lunn made a new game called Cupcake Counting. We have to roll two dice and add them together.  Then we had to put the right number of cupcakes on our plate.   The only problem with the game... the cupcakes aren't real!  Imagine if they were!   Yum!!!
